    At the time of this review, auto rotate in landscape mode was not available on the home screen. It only became available later with the firmware update.

  • @proham116

    Just picked up the Asus Nexus7 32 Gb from Office Depot yesterday for $249.99, and am loving it, by the way the home screen does rotate now.

  • @meghanowens7968
    @meghanowens7968 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    there are TWO drop down menus one on the LEFT is for notifications
    and one on the RIGHT is for settings such as rotate(yes there is a landscape option for your home screen without those apps), brightness(which allows you to easily and quickly edit screen brightness), bluetooth, wireless ect.
    also you CAN highlight and make note with Google books all you have to do is select the text and the highlight option appears at the top with the notes and translator!

  • @TheeBookReader
    @TheeBookReader  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    See my Kindle Fire Jelly Bean review. It has the tablet interface as well as the phone interface option. I'm going to post a video comparing the Nexus 7 and Kindle Fire with Jelly Bean soon.

  • @tron3entertainment
    @tron3entertainment 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    The screen flicker is most likely due to reducing the refresh to simulate dimming. Same concept in used in high end LED flashlights to extend battery life.

  • @TrueRetroflection
    @TrueRetroflection 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm looking to get one of the updated Nexus 7s very soon. I hope they've fixed the flickering issue. Anyone with some firsthand experience who can tell me if the flicker problem is still there?

  • @HGEMAIL
    @HGEMAIL 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just got my one yesterday and haven't notice the screen flicker issue, the rotation lock on the home screen doesn't really bug me much from owning the iPad used to the screen being locked, I tested the browser with the iPad 3 and Samsung 7.7 and it's 1.5sec faster then the iPad but only half a sec or 1 sec on certain sites faster then the 7.7

  • @Venomize1979
    @Venomize1979 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    It does come with the capability of turning the screen sideways without aps. You just slide your finger from the top down and there's a little lock with arrows around it. Click on it and it unlocks the feature.

  • @Chris-is1rd
    @Chris-is1rd 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    it seems like my nexus 7 has some touch screen issues. most of the time it works, but every now and then i have to tap the screen like 5-8 times for the thing to work. i just got it about 4 days ago and i am debating whether or not to send it back.

  • @brownxeyez
    @brownxeyez 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Same here. I haven't had any problems with my home screen changing to landscape. The tablet comes with the auto rotate locked. That might be the issue

  • @1selah
    @1selah 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    You can activate landscape mode NOW without purchasing an app. Go to settings. Scroll down and select accessibility. Make sure that auto-rotate screen is checked, and it should work from there. Hope this helps!

  • @Abyssic1

  • @butterflybabies6129
    @butterflybabies6129 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    the nexus 7 that i have has landscape mode. you go to the top where you time and battery power are located. pull down and you'll see a rectangle with what looks like two little arrows. click that to unlock and your screen will go to landscape

    @See_Sharp 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    The screen flicker is a Tegra 3 power save feature called PRISM. You can disable it with a script or an app but you need to root your device.

  • @liamcampbellhaha
    @liamcampbellhaha 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    it definitely does in a lot of ways, however it falls behind on the screen, if it was the same pixel density as the retina display then it would definitely beat the ipad across the board.

  • @BlindSniper305
    @BlindSniper305 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    you simply tilt it 90 degrees to the side. If that still won't do it, it may be locked.
    On the top right corner (statusbar) slide the status bar down and in thje center there should be an option for auto rotation

  • @jakuban12
    @jakuban12 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Note that in this review is used Android 4.1 in which could not be the home screen rotation, now in 4.2 is for sure.

  • @Skaterian60
    @Skaterian60 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    This was 5 months ago...When it came out. When it came out you couldn't rotate the screen. Now with the update it had a little while ago it let you rotate the screen.

  • @TraceguyRune
    @TraceguyRune 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'd have to think about the 16GB. I might get along with the 8GB. I have a 8GB ipodtouch and I have learned to manage my memory usage with it. I guess the main reason for getting a tablet is the need to upgrade from my iPodTouch. I don't really want an iPad as they are very expensive and I'm not too happy with iOS and apple. I currently use my Ipod for web searches, youtube and social networking. So a tablet is a fair upgrade.

    If you were to install a different launcher, I'd go with Holo Launcher. It's basically the same thing, and looks exactly like the default homescreen.

  • @ShirudoKabe
    @ShirudoKabe 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I just found out today that you can get a thing called USB to go you plug it into the nexus and then your USB stick or other storage device then download a app (sorry I can't remember what it's called) and it makes it so it can open files without transferring them meaning you can keep all your music and films on a memory stick to save space on the nexus I also think thou can store apps on it an
